Immunochromatography (ICA) remains untapped toward enhanced sensitivity and applicability for fulfilling the nuts and bolts of on-site food safety surveillance. Herein, we report a fortified dual-spectral overlap with enhanced colorimetric/fluorescence dual-response ICA for on-site bimodal-type gentamicin (Gen) monitoring by employing polydopamine (PDA)-coated AuNPs (APDA) simultaneously serving as a colorimetric reporter and a fluorescence quencher. Availing of the enhanced colorimetric response that originated from the PDA layer, the resultant APDA exhibits less required antibody and immunoprobes in a single immunoassay, which facilitates improved antibody utilization efficiency and immuno-recognition in APDA-ICA...

Abnormally localized nucleic acids (NAs) are considered as pathogen associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) in innate immunity. They are recognized by NAs-specific pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), leading to the activation of associated signaling pathways and subsequent production of type I interferons (IFNs) and pro-inflammatory cytokines, which further trigger the adaptive immunity. Notably, NAs-mediated innate immune activation is highly dependent on the conformation changes, especially the aggregation of PRRs...

Mitochondria-associated membranes (MAMs) are regions where the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) interacts with mitochondria and regulate lipid trafficking, calcium signaling, ER stress, and inflammation activation. Isolation of MAMs from endothelial cells is vital for studying insight into the immune regulation of many inflammatory diseases. Endothelial cells (ECs) are critical innate immune cells due to their paracrine function of secreting interleukins, chemokines, cytokines, and growth factors, as well as expressing levels of pattern recognition receptors including toll-like receptors (TLRs)...

In this study, we explored spatial-temporal dependencies and their impact on the tactile perception of moving objects. Building on previous research linking visual perception and human movement, we examined if an imputed motion mechanism operates within the tactile modality. We focused on how biological coherence between space and time, characteristic of human movement, influences tactile perception. An experiment was designed wherein participants were stimulated on their right palm with tactile patterns, either ambiguous (incongruent conditions) or non-ambiguous (congruent conditions) relative to a biological motion law (two-thirds power law) and asked to report perceived shape and associated confidence...

While there is increasing recognition that social processes in cities like gentrification have ecological consequences, we lack nuanced understanding of the ways gentrification affects urban biodiversity. We analyzed a large camera trap dataset of mammals (>500 g) to evaluate how gentrification impacts species richness and community composition across 23 US cities. After controlling for the negative effect of impervious cover, gentrified parts of cities had the highest mammal species richness. Change in community composition was associated with gentrification in a few cities, which were mostly located along the West Coast...

Unsupervised feature selection is an important tool in data mining, machine learning, and pattern recognition. Although data labels are often missing, the number of data classes can be known and exploited in many scenarios. Therefore, a structured graph, whose number of connected components is identical to the number of data classes, has been proposed and is frequently applied in unsupervised feature selection. However, methods based on the structured graph learning face two problems. First, their structured graphs are not always guaranteed to maintain the same number of connected components as the data classes with existing optimization algorithms...

Recently, there has been a trend of designing neural data structures to go beyond handcrafted data structures by leveraging patterns of data distributions for better accuracy and adaptivity. Sketches are widely used data structures in real-time web analysis, network monitoring, and self-driving to estimate item frequencies of data streams within limited space. However, existing sketches have not fully exploited the patterns of the data stream distributions, making it challenging to tightly couple them with neural networks that excel at memorizing pattern information...

The MUC1-C protein is aberrantly expressed in adenocarcinomas of epithelial barrier tissues and contributes to their progression. Less is known about involvement of MUC1-C in the pathogenesis of squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs). Here, we report that the MUC1 gene is upregulated in advanced head and neck SCCs (HNSCCs). Studies of HNSCC cell lines demonstrate that the MUC1-C subunit regulates expression of (i) RIG-I and MDA5 pattern recognition receptors, (ii) STAT1 and interferon (IFN) regulatory factors, and (iii) downstream IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs)...

Water management and early detection of faults in proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) are among the most critical constraints that limit the optimal spread of this type of energy. Consequently, it is necessary to enhance the reliability and durability of PEMFCs by developing an approach to diagnose and identify water failure modes. This paper proposes an effective and simple method to detect, diagnose, and classify various water failure modes in PEMFCs using a hybrid diagnostic approach. This approach combines the PEMFC fractional order impedance model (FOIM) with fast Fourier transform pulse width modulation (FFT-PWM) techniques and artificial neural network pattern recognition (ANN-PR) classification...

The combined effects of Indigenous fire stewardship and lightning ignitions shaped historical fire regimes, landscape patterns, and available resources in many ecosystems globally. The resulting fire regimes created complex fire-vegetation dynamics that were further influenced by biophysical setting, disturbance history, and climate. While there is increasing recognition of Indigenous fire stewardship among western scientists and managers, the extent and purpose of cultural burning is generally absent from the landscape-fire modeling literature and our understanding of ecosystem processes and development...

Glioblastoma (GBM) is a fatal brain tumor with limited treatment options. O6-methylguanine-DNA-methyltransferase (MGMT) promoter methylation status is the central molecular biomarker linked to both the response to temozolomide, the standard chemotherapy drug employed for GBM, and to patient survival. However, MGMT status is captured on tumor tissue which, given the difficulty in acquisition, limits the use of this molecular feature for treatment monitoring. MGMT protein expression levels may offer additional insights into the mechanistic understanding of MGMT but, currently, they correlate poorly to promoter methylation...
